    HEADQUARTERS OF THE BULGARIAN ARMY, Sunday, Nov. 3.— From a military point of view the campaign on the battlefield may already be regarded as settled.
    The Bulgarians look forward lo the ensuing diplomatic campaign with dark determination. They have decided to take advantage of every point that they have gained. They will only negotiate directly with the Turkish Government.
    The brilliant co-operation of the Bulgarian leaders, combined with the heroism of their troops, is bringing the Bulgarians fresh successes daily.
    An attempt of the Turks to take up a position again north of Sarai and at Tchorlu in order to cover their retreat totally failed, as also did the intervention east of Visa of Turkish troops who had advanced from Visa through Sultan-Baktchi.
    The Bulgarians are pushing forward in pursuit of the Turks with the greatest energy in order to succeed in driving the largest possible part of the defeated Turkish Army from its line of retreat on Tchatalja as a final result of the Lule-Burgas — Sarai operations.
    The enormous exertions and very great sacrifices entailed by the blows struck at Kirk-Kilisseh and Lule-Burgas naturally evoke a temporary need of repose, but this will not bring the operations to a standstill for any length of time. On the contrary, the advance on Tchatalja may be begun this week.
    At present every nerve is being strained to hasten the fall of Adrianople, particularly in order that the Bulgarian siege guns may be released for eventual use in front of the Tchatalja positions.
    Adrianople's powers of resistance have diminished visibly day by day. The Turks reply weakly and at irregular intervals lo the heavy fire of the Bulgarian artillery. The Turkish works on the northwest front have suffered heavily, and since the last great sortie in the direction of Marash, already reported, the activity of the garrison appears to have considerably diminished.
    The want of provisions in the invested city is reported to be already extremely serious.
    The imminent fall of Adrianople is regarded here as an event of the greatest military and political importance, both as evidence that even the Tchatalja fortifications cannot save Constantinople, and as enabling the whole Bulgarian Army to concentrate for the march on Constantinople. The Turkish soldiers appear to be already convinced of the inevitability of their complete defeat and its results.
    A Turkish soldier captured at Marash said to a Bulgarian officer:
    "Effendi, lead me before the Sultan."
    Asked what he wanted with King Ferdinand, the Turk replied:
    "I wish to beg him not to let the great Mosque of Sultan Soliman be destroyed when Adrianople is captured."
    The Anatolian prisoners throw the blame for the Turkish reverses on the Young Turks because, they say, the latter deposed ex-Sultan Abdul Hamid and so offended against the Koran.
